F.A.Q.

• Drama therapy is a mental health therapy that uses talking, as well as creative tools. The senses of the body are therefore integrated into this therapy, in addition to talking.

• Drama therapy can use stories, images, objects, sounds, sensations, movement, and other tools to meet your needs and goals.

During our sessions, I encourage the use of words when possible. Sometimes words alone are not enough, which is why I incorporate creative tools to facilitate expression when verbal communication becomes difficult.

Since the therapy process is different for everyone, drama therapy is also different for different people.

(1) The beginning is often a moment of transition, of warming up to therapeutic work. A 'check-in' is offered, in order to clarify what needs to be explored during the session.

(2) Next comes the exploration work, in which one or more themes are explored, and creative tools are used, adapted as needed.

(3) The last minutes end with a summary of the session, and a creative or verbal transition.

★ Discover creative tools for self-care outside of sessions.

★ Create distance (e.g., visual arts) to allow you to confront difficult emotions or thoughts.

★ Bring things closer (e.g., movement) to allow you to feel an emotion or thought more deeply.

★ Discover the roles you play in your life, which ones you want more of, and which ones you want less of.

★ etc.
